06:08 DaemonFC; <MinceR> are usian cars so poorly designed that just idling the engine damages it?
06:08 DaemonFC; It can cause excessive carbon buildup on some newer engines, but that actually started being a problem here with German cars.
06:10 DaemonFC; MinceR, VW started using GDI before anyone else in the US market did. Most gas stations were using the minimum legal amount of gasoline detergent because all the cars sold here were indirect (port) fuel injection systems where carbon fouling is only really a problem with non-detergent gas, which was last sold in America in the early 80s.
06:11 DaemonFC; So by 40,000 miles the car ran like shit and a mechanic had to take the engine apart and use "walnut shell blasting" to sand off the carbon buildup.
06:12 DaemonFC; MinceR, The irony of it is that before 1996, when there was no federal EPA detergent standard, most gas brands competed by boasting about how much more detergent they had than the competitor.
06:12 DaemonFC; Then the standard passed and they all reverted to the minimum, somtimes cutting their detergent levels by more than half.
06:14 DaemonFC; MinceR, Gas detergent levels are minimal in almost every case, and besides, one advantage of driving my 3800 V6 is it doesn't really care about detergent. As long as it meets the 1996 standard, it's perfectly fine. :)
06:16 DaemonFC; The gasoline delivery trucks all fill up at the same refinery.
06:16 DaemonFC; So what gives?
06:17 DaemonFC; Well, they pour about a gallon of detergent in many thousands of gallons of gas and let the truck bouncing around and then filling the station's tank mix it.
06:17 DaemonFC; I usually gas up at Thornton's.
06:18 DaemonFC; They have an app and every week they have a 10 cent off per gallon coupon.
06:18 DaemonFC; So I just go fill up with whatever gas I need, usually on Saturdays.

06:23 DaemonFC; MinceR, Taking off with a cold engine is mostly going to hurt an older car though.
06:24 DaemonFC; The older ones are the ones that need to warm up longer before you can ask much of them. They don't run very well with a cold engine.
06:24 DaemonFC; You don't warm a car up for the benefit of the car anymore. Anything more than about a minute just wastes gas. You warm up the car if it's a really cold morning for you.
06:25 DaemonFC; When the engine gets going from the remote start, it'll turn the heater on. I have mine set to 90. So by the time I go back out, it's melted all the ice off the windows.
06:25 DaemonFC; Plus, I'm not freezing for the first couple miles.

20:10 MinceR; schestowitz[TR]: that's xbox 360
20:10 schestowitz[TR]; <techuser> For Windows, there is at least one ISO.
20:10 schestowitz[TR]; hope
20:10 schestowitz[TR]; 16 years agoi came vista
20:10 schestowitz[TR]; you werew 2
20:10 schestowitz[TR]; vista had 7 or 6 editions
20:10 schestowitz[TR]; and it was a giant mess. it still is.
20:10 schestowitz[TR]; worse yet, these were not functional
20:11 schestowitz[TR]; they were about inhibiting nothing
20:11 schestowitz[TR]; and obsstructing use
20:11 schestowitz[TR]; with distros at least you cater for different needs
20:11 techuser; But you could install any edition.
20:11 schestowitz[TR]; not paid tiers
20:11 techuser; I'm talking about hardware compatibility.
20:11 schestowitz[TR]; no, it's a mess
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; you can barely instalkl it
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; installing Windoiws is hard
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; Microsoft lets OEMs do it
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; sometimes with optical restore CDs
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; or clone partition
20:12 techuser; The fragmentation encourages the user to buy a new, even worse device.
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; because it's a broken OS
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; that bricks itself
20:12 techuser; With user-hostile design, e.g. non-removable battery.
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; linux is not so fragmented
20:12 schestowitz[TR]; linux is kernel.org
20:13 schestowitz[TR]; you can get deblobbed
20:13 schestowitz[TR]; same sans some things you lothe
20:13 schestowitz[TR]; gnu linux-libre
20:13 techuser; Desktop GNU/Linux is OK as well.
20:13 schestowitz[TR]; now there is wayland and x
20:13 schestowitz[TR]; and desktops are like applications
20:13 techuser; Works on a lot of hardware, the distributions also have ISOs.
20:13 schestowitz[TR]; metaphors and all
20:13 schestowitz[TR]; "silos'
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; debian is debian
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; with versions
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; you can add and remove what you want
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; and can upgrade for newer versions of things
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; but it's not fragmented
20:14 techuser; Android is not OK. I have a device stuck on 2.3, a device stuck on 4.0, a device stuck on 4.4 and so on.
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; they have only one 'init system'
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; and if you don't want it, use devuan
20:14 schestowitz[TR]; android is not an OS per se
20:15 techuser; A broken device which had self-installing adware built-in.
20:15 schestowitz[TR]; like phones are not computers per se
20:15 schestowitz[TR]; like your microwave is not
20:15 schestowitz[TR]; computer needs to be usable
20:15 schestowitz[TR]; typewriters are not computers and have no microchips
20:16 schestowitz[TR]; but you get more done on a typewriter than an android anything
20:16 schestowitz[TR]; inc. tablet
20:16 schestowitz[TR]; people who use android and windows a lot cannot progress
20:16 schestowitz[TR]; they are not competitive in general
20:17 schestowitz[TR]; buon used freebsd and maybe old ubuntu
20:17 schestowitz[TR]; not windows or android
20:17 schestowitz[TR]; buom

22:40 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], That's the best part about Windows 10/11. They don't give you a $5 USB stick to restore it from. Oh no. They take up 50 GB of your SSD and pack in all of the bloatware too.
22:40 DaemonFC; So not only does Windows hog your SSD, you have a recovery partition that takes up 12% all by itself.

22:56 DaemonFC; I thought it was hilarious in 1999 when I was like 15 and all of a sudden the Sci Fi Channel had all of these "I am Sci Fi." blurbs and one of them comes on and says "I'm Traci Lords and I am Sci Fi.".
22:56 DaemonFC; I go, "Dad, who is Traci Lords?".
22:56 DaemonFC; And of course he knew immediately. :/
22:56 DaemonFC; I came across a 1987 article where the police in California busted a man for selling dozens of VHS tapes with her and got him with a single Class A Misdemeanor.
22:56 DaemonFC; Different times?
22:56 DaemonFC; Nobody cared. Now it's like OMG RED ALERT!

23:00 DaemonFC; I get dragged to every one of them.
23:01 DaemonFC; I had to stop and explain to my ex how bad Thanos's plan was because it would cause a huge catastrophe with half of all people disappearing randomly, then the ones who were left would go back to breeding even if they've been warned it would happen again.

23:06 DaemonFC; My mom is one of those "You can have my gasoline car when you pry it from my cold, dead hands." people.
23:06 DaemonFC; I told her what she's seeing now with Tesla is like some broken half-working beta of an electric car and once the real car companies get going, Tesla goes bankrupt and you'll really start seeing innovation and charging networks everywhere, but you have to give it another 10 years to be a mass market and for companies that aren't making them in tents with bumpers falling off.
23:12 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Waukegan has a "temporary casino" now while they build a "resort casino" next to the Walmart with the "ghetto people".

23:29 DaemonFC; "A man in New York tried to sneak handgun parts and bullets in jars of peanut butter through a TSA scanner and is under arrest.
23:29 DaemonFC; I know exactly how stupid this is because my ex showed me what the difference between "organic mass" and "metal" is on the scanner, and unless the person sitting in front of the screen is asleep, you're not going to miss gun parts in peanut butter.
23:29 DaemonFC; One person watches the scanner at all times and flags things for another TSO to pull and check."
23:29 DaemonFC; "The TSA pretty much deliberately slows down the non-precheck lines to frustrate people into paying for precheck because it's how they make a lot of their budget.
23:29 DaemonFC; If you don't pay, you have to show up two hours early, and take your shoes off, and a lot of other dumb things, when the precheck procedures could have everyone through the checkpoint twice as fast.
23:29 DaemonFC; They deliberately give people precheck randomly sometimes so they get a little taste and pay for it. Has nothing to do with security."
23:30 DaemonFC; "If you fly a lot and get TSA precheck randomly, though, it does mean that they ran a comprehensive background check on you (they won't say what they use, but it's fairly thorough) and they've determined you to be a low risk passenger.
23:30 DaemonFC; If they give it to you even once, they don't consider you a threat.
23:30 DaemonFC; Having any conviction for violent crime pretty much guarantees you won't get it randomly, but they also monitor things like Facebook and Twitter, and your iMessage conversations."
23:30 DaemonFC; "Apple turns over iMessage conversations to the Department of Homeland Security in bulk, in real time, and they get scanned for key words and phrases just like the SIGINT coming in from Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, Outlook, and the file scanners that run on iCloud and Google Drive.
23:30 DaemonFC; These get concatenated and used to build a risk profile behind your back, and then there's people who can get precheck, people who have to go through the regular line, and a list of people who get pulled and questioned."
23:30 DaemonFC; "Most of the risk scoring is completely automated and the people who work for DHS don't even know how the software works or why they're pulling people out of the lines and taking them to be questioned.
23:30 DaemonFC; It can get so bad that you can't fly at all and you don't know why, but I'm told that list has never been more than 47,000 people."
23:30 DaemonFC; "One man got put on the Customs "yank him out of line for questioning every time he enters the country" list and it took him forever to find out why.
23:30 DaemonFC; He ordered a designer briefcase on Amazon several years prior and it never came, so his credit card gave him a chargeback refund.
23:30 DaemonFC; Turns out, Customs had intercepted it and put his name on a list of people notorious for smuggling counterfeit goods into America, because he tried to buy a briefcase and the seller wasn't legit. (Marketplace)"
23:31 DaemonFC; "The Customs Shitlist is worse than the TSA one, because 99.999% of people the TSA can't "clear" just have to go through the normal line instead, but anything involving an International Border means you have pretty much none of your rights, even if you're a US citizen.
